Abandonware site charges for downloads

A quicky glance, at the PC side of things, it appears they've spidered a
better known free (ethical) abandonware site.   I suspect they've
probably done similarly w/ the non-PC side of things.

And by "ethical", I mean if the PC site I'm thinking of knows someone
sells it, or the IP owner sends a email / C&D they won't distribute
it.  

(Further abandoware copyright ownership/ethical debates will be
dutifully ignored.)
